What’s the fastest-growing sport in the Middle East? Football? No. Cricket? Not even that. It’s esports. Yes, that’s right. There are over 377 million gamers across the region. “We are a youthful nation, with over 23 million gamers, and our kingdom has become a global hub for professional esports. This is a natural next step for our young athletes, our country, and the global esports community,” said Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Faisal, the Saudi Minister of Sport.

Not knowing what’s going to happen when we’re watching a movie can be thrilling. Edge-of-your-seat excitement is fun entertainment, and we pan films with predictable endings. When the uncertainty is in our own life, however, the experience is less enthralling. In fact, it can be downright negative. That’s because not being able to see the future causes us to be emotionally and intellectually uncomfortable, says Rebecca Homkes author of Survive, Reset, Thrive: Leading Breakthrough Growth Strategy in Volatile Times.
How to stop assuming the worst in a state of uncertainty

For students and professional scholars alike, starting a new research project typically means digging through academic literature to understand what others have already written. That can take a considerable amount of time, with researchers tracking down and combing through journal articles to begin their research and contextualize their own findings. But a growing collection of AI-powered tools aims to make that process easier. These new tools can help researchers more quickly find relevant papers, pull out relevant information from them, or both.
How AI tools help students—and their professors—in academic research

SoftFoot Pro is a flexible prosthetic prototype that was inspired by the anatomical structure of the human foot. It is made up of five durable plastic chains, each composed of various interlocking elements to reflect individual bones, and arranged in parallel to mimic the skeletal structure of the foot. The chains are connected to the heel—and to one another—through a set of wires and elastics that, together, act as tendons and ligaments. The result is a prosthetic foot that can be disassembled and repaired easily, and adapt to almost any surface. The design is meant to make it easier for people to go up and down stairs, bend down to tie shoelaces, walk on uneven terrain like a gravel or a woodland path—and even play football. “Usually, [people wearing prosthetic feet] have to concentrate on where to place the foot to maintain equilibrium,” says Manuel Catalano, a researcher in the Soft Robotics for Human Cooperation and Rehabilitation Lab at IIT who led the research.

Suppose you have a young person on your team who is struggling to adjust to their work, while also dealing with personal problems. They may be working on a complex project that isn’t yet finished. How do you best help this employee address their issues while also ensuring that important work gets done for the organization? A common response is to take care of some of the work for this team member. You may assure this person that they are valued and that their emotional well-being is primary. You or other team members may take on additional work to help get through the situation.
How to motivate employees in difficult times, according to a psychologist

You really do wonder whether they have absorbed the lessons of Clayton Christensen’s bestselling book The Innovator’s Dilemma? Incumbent industries always make such excuses as they find themselves locked into fading markets. I recently worked with the rising cohort of senior executives at Mercedes-Benz in Stuttgart, which just happened to be in the wake of their CEO’s announcement that the company would not now meet its publicly declared 2030 target of 100% electric vehicles. In the meantime, Chinese brands like BYD make quality electric cars at price points that once would have seemed like science fiction. Slapping near-50% tariffs on such imports, as the EU plans to do, can only hold back the rising tide for so long.
How do we transform markets so that sustainability isn’t a choice but an imperative?

Most space mission systems historically have used one spacecraft designed to complete an entire mission independently. Whether it was a weather satellite or a human-crewed module like Apollo, nearly every spacecraft was deployed and performed its one-off mission completely on its own. But today, space industry organizations are exploring missions with many satellites working together. For example, SpaceX’s Starlink constellations include thousands of satellites. And new spacecraft could soon have the capabilities to link up or engage with other satellites in orbit for repairs or refueling.
